I recently had lunch at Tonkatsu Tamafuji Chitose branch located at 3-5-4 Nishiki-cho, Chitose City. I had the aged pork loin cutlet set meal with 140g (regular price including tax for weekday lunch is 1,100 yen). As always, I chose the mixed rice for my meal. For the miso soup, I opted for the Mitsuba Nameko mushroom soup. This was my 7th visit to Tonkatsu Tamafuji Chitose branch. In the past, I have tried various dishes at this restaurant, such as the pork loin cutlet set meal, aged pork loin cutlet set meal, aged pork fillet cutlet set meal, and more. This time, I found the complimentary "Yumepirika" a bit disappointing. After the meal, I enjoyed a warm cup of tea and a honey lemon banana dessert. I also received some complimentary bread crusts from beside the register, which was a bit too much for me to finish alone. If you're curious about the free bread crusts, give them a try! Thank you for the meal.

Matured pork cutlet set with thick-cut crispy cutlet curry. The meat is tender and delicious. You can choose between regular rice and five-grain rice. You can also choose the ingredients and type of miso for the miso soup. Pickles are included, making it a luxurious meal. The price is on the higher side, but the service is good. You can get refills for rice and cabbage.

On regular days (excluding Obon and Golden Week), using coupons like the Odekake Line can get you an additional 20% off your lunch. You can also get free refills of rice, cabbage, and pickles. I always leave satisfied at Tamafuji, as both the taste and customer service are great no matter which location I visit.

Visited a little after 11 o'clock. Even though it was right after opening, there were already 5 people in the restaurant, showing how popular it is. This was my third visit. The first time, I ordered the 180g pork cutlet set. The second time, I ordered the aged fillet cutlet set with 3 pieces and added 2 shrimp fry toppings. The shrimp fry was crispy and delicious. This time, I chose the set with 3 oysters and 2 fins for 1870 yen. The rice options included mixed rice (I think it was mixed with conger eel and corn) and I chose miso soup with three-leafed watercress. First, pickles and sesame in a mortar are brought to the table. The pickles, especially the bamboo shoots and burdock, were delicious. While enjoying the pickles, the main dishes arrived in about 10 minutes. I first tried the oyster with tartar sauce, and the taste of the oyster spread in my mouth. The oyster fry was large enough to eat in two bites. The light tartar sauce paired well with the oyster fry. Next, I tried the fillet cutlet with spicy sauce. The quality of the meat was evident, with a rich flavor and tenderness that made it a truly delicious fillet cutlet. The mixed rice with bright yellow corn was also delicious. I ended up asking for a second serving of rice and pickles. With a 20% off coupon from my previous visit, the total bill of 1870 yen was reduced to 1496 yen, saving me 370 yen. It was a very satisfying dining experience at Tamafuji. Thank you for the meal.

I really like this tonkatsu restaurant. The tonkatsu is crispy and freshly fried, and you can have unlimited refills of rice and pickles. There are three types of rice and pickles to choose from, which is also appealing. You can choose from different types of miso soup, but it's a shame that you can't have refills. If refills were allowed, it would be a 5-star rating. But I still love it.

The reviewer visited Tamafuji for the 3rd or 4th time after about 3 years. They noticed that the prices seemed to have gone up, possibly due to inflation. Tamafuji regularly offers a 20% discount. They tried the 240g tender and juicy pork cutlet set meal, which they felt had more fat compared to the aged premium pork loin. The fat content was quite high, but it can be avoided if desired. The reviewer preferred the premium pork loin. The reviewer also mentioned that the rice was cooked soft and sweet, and the staff kindly cut the cutlet into pieces for them.

At first, I didn't know what to expect. The staff greeted me at the entrance, and when I said I was dining alone, they seated me at the counter. The service was good up to that point. As I started eating the food I ordered, whenever my rice, pickles, or cabbage ran out, they would politely ask, "Would you like a refill?" It wasn't pushy at all, just like being reminded by a mother at a family dinner table. This attention to detail really impressed me. I ordered the Aged Pork Cutlet Set (180g) for 1790 yen, which came with simmered rice (chicken and konjac) and miso soup with nameko mushrooms. The simmered rice was delicious, I ended up getting three refills! The pickles were also amazing, with flavors like bamboo shoots and burdock preserved lightly to bring out the natural taste of the ingredients. Even though it's a tonkatsu restaurant, the conversation never really focused on the tonkatsu itself, which I found refreshing. The 180g aged tonkatsu was thick and crispy, and the sauce was light so I could enjoy the flavor of the meat. It was more about savoring the taste of the pork rather than it being greasy. Maybe trying it with salt would have brought out even more flavor. Overall, I enjoyed the lightness of the 180g tonkatsu. This restaurant's charm lies not only in the delicious tonkatsu but also in the exceptional service provided by each staff member. It's been a while since I've experienced such heartwarming service. I will definitely be visiting again soon. Thank you for the meal.

As a fan of Tamafuji, the food is delicious at any location. The pork cutlet is tender and crispy, the shrimp fry is plump and crispy. I wish they would give 1.5 times more tartar sauce. You can choose from 3 types of miso soup and rice, and they allow you to refill with a different type. You can also refill the cabbage and pickles. The mixed rice of the day was also delicious. Keep up the good work with expanding your stores, Tamafuji!

I received a LINE coupon for a 20% discount and decided to try the famous iron plate miso cutlet. You can choose from 3 types of rice, and miso soup is available in red or white miso. The cabbage is all-you-can-eat. The miso cutlet was delicious, but unfortunately, all three types of rice were hard and not very tasty. The red miso soup was delicious and the cabbage was a good palate cleanser. Thank you for the meal.➖➖➖Famous iron plate miso cutlet set meal 1,810 yen

I had a discount coupon so I went to Tamafuji. It had been a while since I last went, and I was surprised to see that the prices had gone up since the last time (@_@). I ordered the usual 180g aged pork cutlet set with mixed rice and clam soup. It's expensive, but delicious, so I will come back if I have another discount coupon.

I had a sizzling hot pork cutlet and egg on rice in a clay pot! It was delicious! The cutlet was thick and just the right amount of firmness. They offer three types of rice: seafood mixed rice, white rice, and five-grain rice. The five-grain rice was especially tasty. You can also enjoy unlimited pickles and shredded cabbage. The pickled burdock was sweet and delicious. I heard they are expanding to Hawaii before mainland Japan. It was a feast! I'll definitely come back again.

Founded in 1952 in Sapporo, this tonkatsu specialty restaurant became a part of the Dohkyu Group in 1995. It is the only branch located outside Sapporo, in Chitose City along National Route 36, about 50 meters from the intersection with Prefectural Routes 337 and 16. It is a 7-8 minute walk from JR Chitose Station. Visited again on September 9, 2022, before noon. Today's cycling destination was Chitose Airport Snow Miku Snow Town. The restaurant was not crowded, so I decided to have lunch here. I ordered the Aged Pork Loin (140g) for 1100 yen, which came with red miso soup and a 3-kind rice assortment. It took about 10 minutes for the food to be served, and it was cooked by a veteran chef. The pork cutlet was cooked perfectly, with just the right amount of heat. The unique and mixed rice were both delicious, not too salty. However, the use of palm oil made it a bit heavy after eating half, so I ended up peeling off the breading and eating just the meat. At home, I could easily eat 300g of homemade tonkatsu the next day, but this was a bit too much due to the oil used.

It had been a while since my spouse and I visited Tamafuji together. We arrived around 11:30 am and there were already a few customers. By noon, more people started coming in, so we were glad we arrived a bit early. The customer service here is really great! They welcomed us at the entrance, handed us hot towels, and even saw us off when we left! Can you believe such attentive service at a chain restaurant with so many customers? And the food was served quickly! There were about three chefs, I think? They were all great. The atmosphere was nice too. The pickles were delicious and unlimited, and this time I had the hokki rice with mixed grains and plum and hijiki seaweed. It was delicious! I even had two helpings of the mixed rice. Of course, it's all you can eat. This time, I ordered the 180g aged loin cutlet, and it was incredibly tender and delicious! The best! I definitely want to go back again! Also, because I'm a LINE friend, I got a 20% discount on the bill. And on the way out, I received a 20% discount coupon. A 20% discount is quite significant! They also gave me some bread crusts to take home!

The atmosphere created by the staff was great, and despite the situation with the coronavirus, we were able to enjoy our meal. The dishes we ordered were delicious, and whenever our water was running low, they promptly refilled it. The post-meal tea and the complimentary honey lemon banana were also very tasty. My husband and I were very satisfied and left feeling full. We would definitely like to visit again. Thank you for the wonderful meal.

Wow, it was my first time visiting Hirudama Tamafuji. I really wanted to eat tonkatsu, so I decided to come here. They were having a Kaki Fry Fair, so of course I had to order it. The Kaki Fry at Tamafuji was amazing. It wasn't just juicy like meat, but more like a juice from the shellfish that oozed out when you bit into it. It was incredible! I felt like I was not just eating Kaki Fry, but savoring happiness with each bite. It was so delicious! I was extremely satisfied. The Hirenkatsu and mixed rice for December were made with cod, and the miso soup had cod dumplings. These dumplings were the smoothest I've ever had and tasted delicious. The staff were all very friendly and provided excellent service. The hot tea served after the meal was also incredibly delicious. Since I went during lunchtime, I also got some bread crust from Tamafuji, which I turned into a delicious pizza toast at home. Thank you for the wonderful meal!

Visited for lunch with my wife and daughter. In the past, the hand towel at the entrance was an unnecessary service, but nowadays it's good after disinfecting your hands! Each of us ordered a set meal, and we shared three types of rice and miso soup - delicious! The two staff members who guided us and took our orders were great, but the staff member, Sakaki, who served our food and handled the payment was the best! Considering the service, the lunch was not too expensive and we were satisfied. Sakaki said, "You're funny, bring everything over!" He carried a handful of bread crusts and couldn't find his car keys - we laughed. We had 3 aged pork cutlet set meals for 1530 yen, 3 oyster and 2 shrimp set meals for 1940 yen, and 3 plum and miso pork cutlet set meals for 1640 yen. Thank you for the meal! (^^)v

I wanted to eat Negi Shio Katsu at "Katsufuji," but the owner was not feeling well and the shop was closed. So, I went to my usual place, Tamafuji. Whenever I come to Chitose, it always ends up being Tamafuji or Kushitori... When I arrived, I noticed that the menu had returned and even the sauce had returned! It was slowly going back to how it used to be. (Before, they used disposable paper menus.) I also wanted to eat the delicious "Tamafuji bread crust" that I haven't had since then... I want to eat it again... I ordered a set of 3 Hire Katsu and added a Chicken Katsu because I wanted to eat both pork and chicken. Since they don't have a set like that, I ordered them separately. Three pieces are just right. My companion always orders Rosu Katsu, so we traded. When you ask for "salt," they give you rock salt, which is delicious when you sprinkle it on the katsu. The Salt Katsu is deeply delicious. It was almost 8 o'clock, but surprisingly there was still Takikomi Gohan available (instead of Gokoku Gohan). It was "Shirasu, Hijiki, Edamame Takikomi Gohan." I thought it was Wasabi Gokoku Gohan, but it turned out to be "Burnt Soy Sauce Gokoku Gohan." Oh no! I wanted to eat that! Once again, it was undeniably delicious! Thank you for the meal!

Visit date: Around 7:30 PM on March 26, 2021. On this day, I planned to revisit "○ru○tei" and have a set meal, but since they closed early, I decided to change to this restaurant, "Tonkatsu Tamafuji Chitose Store." It was actually my first time visiting Tamafuji. Unlike "Ka○ya" or "Ka○fu○" in Ebetsu, it seems that they do not have any donburi menu, which was surprising. I ordered the '"Aged" Pork Loin Katsu Set 160g (¥1881)' with the option to choose my favorite type of rice and miso soup, and I chose "Seasonal Five-Grain Rice" and "Clam Soup." The clam soup was not listed on the menu, so I remember it being a substitute for clam soup. Despite being dinner, the price was not cheap, almost ¥2000... The sesame and suribachi arrived first, and I waited for the food while grinding the sesame. I'm not a fan of sesame, but since it was provided, I decided to taste it as part of the experience. Then the pickles arrived. It was made mainly with burdock and other vegetables, showing the service spirit of the staff and the store's commitment to quality. The taste was refreshing and nice. After a while, the main dish arrived. It consisted of rice, tonkatsu, miso soup, and the pickles from earlier. The five-grain rice had a salty taste and was a delicious type. If you feel like plain rice is not enough, trying cooked rice or this option can offer a different dining experience. The thickness of the main tonkatsu was sufficient! Especially the way it was cut on the left side was large and full of volume. The batter was not too thick or too thin, and it effectively showcased the size of the pork loin meat itself. Grated radish, lemon, and mustard were provided, allowing for flavor variations when combined with the condiments on the table, offering a variety of tastes to enjoy. The crispy texture was satisfying on its own as tonkatsu, but since it was not tenderloin meat, having a bit more fat on the inside would make it even juicier and more delicious. The batter was not greasy, and the outer layer was personally to my liking, but the juiciness was a bit subdued. The tonkatsu I ordered this time was on the lighter side, so if you are looking for a juicier flavor, you may need to pay more for the "Toro Umami Pork Cutlet Set." I recommend eating the shredded cabbage with sweet sauce. (Although I was full and declined an additional serving, when my companion asked for a refill, the staff offered one, so I had a little more.) Despite not liking sesame, I tried the sesame sauce, but as expected, what I don't like remains... I wonder if I prefer spicy or sweet sauce over sesame. I have a few foods in the nutty category that I'm not good with, so I'd like to be able to enjoy the taste without any problems. After finishing the set meal, the staff brought warm tea, showing their attentive service. It felt like a restaurant that provides good service. It seems that Tamafuji has different menus depending on the store, so it might be fun to explore the differences between each store. Thank you for the meal.

My companion ordered "Stick Pork Cutlet," and I thought it would come in several stick-shaped cutlets, but instead, one thick cutlet was served, cooked to perfection! It also came with crunchy "rock salt" that you could sprinkle on the cutlet, which made the pork cutlet quite delicious. I love chicken cutlets, so I made a deal with my companion to share their pork cutlet and stick cutlet and ordered the chicken cutlet. The specialty store's chicken cutlet was absolutely delicious! I also borrowed the salt from the stick pork cutlet and it made the chicken cutlet taste even better! It's great to go with a large group because you can try a variety of dishes. The pickles are now served one plate at a time due to infection prevention measures, so I had seconds of the burdock pickles... And then, I discovered the "service bread crusts" that I hadn't noticed before (or maybe they weren't there before). I took them home and found out they were from a special bread labeled "Tamafuji." The thin slices of bread crusts were packed tightly, and when I made pizza toast with them, they turned out even thinner and crispier than regular 8-slice bread, and they were absolutely delicious! Toasted with butter, they were also very tasty! They were so thin that they almost burned (laughs). I will definitely get them again if they are available! I've found a new pleasure. Thank you for the meal!

My family loves Tamafuji, so we came back again. Today we came early and they still had the "Seasonal Mixed Rice" available! This is our favorite part about Tamafuji. In February 2021, it was "Pork, Plum, and Long Potato Mixed Rice." The plum flavor was very subtle. The texture of the long potato was interesting. The seasonal multigrain rice was "Wasabi Rice." The menu was on thin paper, maybe to avoid reuse. We had the Big Leaf and Mizore Pork Cutlet Set for 1490 yen. I remember having this before. I love dishes with grated ingredients. It was refreshing and delicious! We tried it with soy sauce, sauce, and grated daikon. Since we ordered 3 cutlets this time (I felt too full with 4 last time), we could enjoy different flavors. It was still delicious as always! Thank you for the meal!
